They squeal a lot They squeal a lot. Just getting next to something, like inside a car or next to a kitchen cabinet set off the squealing. It is uncomfortable just to reach up to take them out because of the squealing caused by my hand. There needs to be a better filter to stop all the noise of knives and forks clanking on the plates, because all I hear at dinner is plates clanking, and my self chewing. I am effectively deaf at any dining situation.

Bluetooth not very user friendly Considering that hearing aids are for older people, the work that went into Bluetooth connectivity is pitiful. I’ve been getting a phone call everyday from my 87 year old friend because she loses connectivity. The issue isn’t with her but rather her devices. She has EarPods which work well, but these hearing aids don’t have the same Bluetooth ease of use. I would not recommend these to anyone. They work well but keep disconnecting and pairing them, at times, is quite the feat.

Some improvements & differences from my previous hearing aids The edge mode is very nice & I’ve been using it. I also love the recharging battery, which is different than my previous hearing aid. Although making adjustments through the iPhone is very convenient on this model, I miss being able to adjust the sound UP & DOWN (2 buttons on the ear piece, instead of one.). It now has to go through all of the settings every time I need to adjust the sound, instead of just hitting either button.

Began 2 weeks ago wearing hearing… Began 2 weeks ago wearing hearing aides. Heard horror stories about being in a group or loud noises in a room. Watched a friend adjust in disgust her HA. Last night different friend adjusted his HA as noise was irritating him. Both instances, I was great. No adjustments needed. Yes!!! Starkey !

My password? Is this some kind of an advertising joke? The failure took place over several momnths, and is ongoing, not one day. The devices improved my hearing immediately. But I was unable to adjust the volume or frequency band even though i was told it was possible. Later i found out there was software to permit these adjustments. When it was installed it improved everything. UNFORTUNATELY, it didn't last long. The software stopped working. I am now waiting to have it reinstalled. I need to get this software so I can do it myself. The wait is unreasonably long. The wait is unreasonably long. (This format is not sufficient to submit a good report)
